I can't speak for everyone, but most of the people I've met who wrok
with binary learn how to read hex and translate it to binary in their
heads.  (It's slow at first, but it gets really quick with a bit of
practice.)

You could, if you needed to, write a bin function yourself.  I would
recommend calling the oct function, and replacing the characters in the
string.  (If you need help getting that working, give it a good try, and
post what you have, and I'll be happy to assist you.)
